Get Excited: Downtown Disney Has Now Reopened Superthread!

[dina444444]

Four hours yikes. It feels like people are just desperate for any Disney crumb at this point!

Today was also the first day the store was open to the public.

30% off extended until March 11!

Random question, was there anything new added today at DTD? I saw people posting long lines for Simba lot. Seems odd for a Monday

30% discount and the first day the Star Wars store was open with the discount?

That's an interesting way to state this information because on the Disneyland website it says right out that tickets ARE going on sale March 4 for everyone.

But apparently they will be announcing the time/announcing they’re on sale via the FB page (probably other ways, too).

Can’t wait to see the depths of the system crash when that happens.

It’s a little busy here tonight. They were quitting a 30 min wait to enter from Simba. I parked at Gardenwalk and had no wait to enter on harbor.

My daughter and I are planning to go at opening on Friday, and I’m a little nervous because we’ve only gone at fairly empty times previously. Might need to try the Gardenwalk...

You should be ok for opening if you can get here before they actually open.

I visited DTD today for the first time in about three weeks. At the Star Wars Trading Post, I asked a CM if I could have an AP magnet without buying anything. She explained, rather sternly, that a purchase was required in order to receive said magnet. But then a twinkle sparked in her eye, she said she’d see what she could do and went behind the counter. Moments later she emerged and handed me one of the coveted magnets. Kindness always makes me happy and today was no exception. The magnet was inconsequential. But the fact that the CM made a special effort to help and be kind went a long way today... especially considering these challenging times with few if any opportunities to perform or receive random acts of kindness .

You are right that kindness does go a long way, especially these days! Richard Sherman often says that Walt's favorite song was "Feed the Birds" because it reminded him how it costs so little to be kind... just "tuppence a bag."

I went again today for some late lunch at Earl of Sandwich. Love that place. I sit in the seating in front of the old AMC. Just listening to the music and getting some Disney feels. I don't really go in stores. Just walk around. I do feel like going into DCA is a bit anti climatic with no rides, tho. But still glad it's there. I don't always go in to DCA.

Beef Mac & Cheese. Yum.

My AP magnet: deployed.

Has anyone seen this at DTD? I “need” it and don’t want to pay for shipping.

Yes I saw it a while ago at the home store and backlot. Not sure if it’s still there
